Principal’s Message

Thank you for visiting our webpage and on behalf of our staff, students and families, I hope that it not only provides you with information but that it also gives you a feel for the wonderful sense of community at our school. We offer a very personalised education for all of our students and together with our community, we strive to support our students to be their best. You’re most welcome to come for a tour, please contact our office to arrange an appointment.

Exford is a vital school, which has the unique attraction of being able to offer individual attention for all children, as well as being very well-resourced. We offer all the advantages of a semi-rural school environment, whilst having the latest technology and staff who are committed to supporting our students to be their best.

Exford is set in attractive gardens; our students are actively involved in planting and learning about sustaining our environment and we have a strong community commitment to caring for our grounds.

The school is located on Exford Road, six kilometres from Melton South within the City of Melton boundaries, on a 1.2-hectare site surrounded by farming land. We are approximately 5 km from the Eynesbury estate and only a few kilometres from the new Weir Views (formerly Waterford) and Exford Waters estates. Some of our students travel from the wider Melton area, with other families coming from Exford, Eynesbury and Strathtulloh.

Our families articulate that Exford is a school of choice, and that they are committed to travelling the further distance to bring their students to our school. When asked, our parent community identify the strong emphasis on courtesy, values, student resilience and personal and interpersonal learning fostered by our programs as being important reasons for selecting Exford for their children.
